You were sitting on a rock peacefully napping when a giant wave woke you up.

"AANG, MY NAPPING WILL NOT BE DISTURBED WHEN YOUR PRACTICING!" You were starting to sound like Sokka. Speak of the devil...

"Im with yn on this one. You just practiced our supplies down the river." Sokka pointed. You and him wore matching expressions.

"Im sure we can find stuff at the market." Katara said.

"Fine lets go." said Sokka

When you guys got to the market aang had already spent one of our copper pieces on some useless whistle. After everyone was done knocking on his whistle you went up to him.

"Its okay aang. I like your whistle." You said reassuringly.

"Thanks yn." Aang said

"Hey, anytime. Were in this whole saving the world thing together. Ill always be there for you." You said

"Ok. I dont know what any of that has to do with my whistle but thanks." Aang grinned

"Dont push it." You dead panned

After that some merchant came up to you guys advertising. Of course aang fell for the guys trap right away.

"Guys look, a water bending scroll!" Katara said optimisticly.

"I dont know if we should trust these pirates." Sokka said.

"Yea, I agree with Sokka. Besides, I like to make up my own moves anyways." You said. God you were agreeing with Sokka way to much today.

When Aang tried to bargain with the head pirate, Katara suddenly decided we should leave.

"I just felt safer now that we are off the ship." Katara said after you got off. She was up to something.

"Hey you, get back here!" The advertising pirate said. Soon enough, a bunch of his cronies started to come after you.

You guys just started to run. As you were running, you saw iroh looking at stuff. While the gaang was still running away, you told them you would meet them back at camp. Then you slipped of to talk to iroh.

"Iroh!" You shouted.

"Yn! You have got to try this tea I found. Its amazing." Iroh offered you a sip. It was ok.

"Hey Iroh, I actually thought that you could do me a favor." You said. Iroh raised an eyebrow.

"What favor yn? I already gave you some tea." Iroh said. You chuckled.

"It turns out im the apprentice. Could you tell Zuko for me. I don't want to make him any more mad at me." You said

"Yn I will tell Zuko for you. But I need you to know that Zuko isn't mad at you. He just misses you. I miss you. Yn he loves you." Iroh said longingly.

"I know Iroh. I love him too. But I know where my destiny as the apprentice lies. I miss you too Iroh." You hugged the old man. And with that you left

*Zukos POV*

"Uncle, did I just see yn run out of the shop?" That was confusing. Did I really miss her that much?

"About yn, we need to have a talk about her." Uncle said.

"What?" I asked

"You know how I always tell you stories about the apprentice?" Uncle said

"No. No she cant be!" I refused to believe that. I didn't want to have to hunt her down too. Uncle just shook his head.

"I am sorry Zuko. We must get back to the ship."

  *Time skip brought to u by Irohs tea*

We saw yn and Katara practice water bending with that scroll by the river. We snuck behind the bushes and blindfolded them. When we tied them to a tree we took them off and they looked quite surprised.

"Tell me where Aang is and I wont do you or your brother any harm." I told the water bender.

"What about yn? Either way I still wont tell you where he is." Katara fired back.

"Please try to understand I need him to restore something I've lost. My honor. Perhaps an exchange will work." I held up the necklace.

"Stop Zuko. Dont bring her into this. Just give her necklace back and you can take me. I'm more powerful then Aang anyways." Yn said. I thought about the offer for a minute, but then I remembered yn is banished too. But then again, now that we know she is the apprentice, she could restore my honor. No, I couldn't use her like that. She was worth too much to me.

"Enough with this necklace garbage, you promised a scroll." The head pirate said.

"Go find the boy, then we'll give you the scroll." I ordered. I untied yn and brought her into the woods.

                       *Your POV*
Zuko walked you into the woods to talk to you.

"Yn, why didn't you tell me you were the apprentice?" Zuko asked.

"I didn't find out until someone at the Southern water tribe told me." You crossed your arms. You didn't want to look at him right now.

"You had plenty of other chances to tell me." Zuko said.

"We were probably fighting during those times." You were about to walk away when Zuko grabbed your shoulder.

"YOU COULD HAVE TOLD ME BEFORE YOU LEFT MY SHIP!" Zukos grip on your shoulder was getting hot. You hissed in pain.

"Zuko! Stop that hurts. Dont you realize that burning me isn't the answer." You shouted. You looked at your newly burned shoulder. Then you looked at your other one. Zuko followed your gaze.

"I-Im sorry. Just please come back." Zuko pleaded.

"Zuko, you know I can't." You started to tear up.

"Just promise me, you'll come with me sometime soon?" Zuko asked.

"I don't know." You were so close to crying

"Ok." Zuko looked down. That was all he had to say. You were about to cry. Zuko wrapped you up in a comforting hug before you started crying. Zuko had never seen you cry. Not when Zhao harassed you, not when he called you a mutt, not ever.

"You know why I want you to come back so bad right?" Zuko asked. You realized he was on the verge of tears. Suddenly you turned around quickly and kissed him to answer his question. He started kissing you back. Then you broke the kiss and got up.

"Im so sorry Zuko."
